did anyone see the lineup for UFC 68 yet? they have matt hughes fighting some Ultimate Fighter contestant loser, WHY?!?!
a perfect opponent for matt hughes would be diego sanchez in my opinion, or atleast Karo paryisian, then the winner would have the next title shot.
and in regards to UFC 67 Quinton "rampage" jackson was a beast in PRIDE and he beat liddell in PRIDE, so i would love to see him after this easy fight he goes on to fight the highest light heavyweight contender, or get a title shot

Because that is the prize they earned for winning the show/competition, a title shot.
Karo has lost a couple of his last handful of fights, he's not on any kind of streak and really has not earned a shot as of yet.
Diego will get a shot soon, Dana White is just saving that matchup to draw some big PPV numbers, he's a smart guy. Dont place all your eggs in one basket and all.
Rampage needs to break into the organization and win some fights, hes a great fighter but he has to earn a shot like everyone else. Think about it, a large portion of the American MMA fan base isnt familiar with PRIDE or most other over-seas fighters, if they want to tap into the huge PPV numbers these certain matchups like Jackson vs Liddel can potentially have, they need to get those names out there and familiarize the fan base first.
